I set relayhost to NOT check DNS and to use port 587. The password file is set up using the same info. I removed info from smtp_sasl_security_options and will look into adding what it was back but empty works.

I like what I see. I think there is still an issue with dns, and will look in the forums for more info on the 2wire routers to see what others found

AWSOME!! I To have a Ubuntu server.. but I didnt get a static IP. I Use DynDNS. I Love UVERSE iNET just for the reason of they dont block ports. I will be setting my mail server up soon. I was told by the installer that I could request that port 25 not be blocked. But Im thinking about using a Port 25 redirect service http://www.no-ip.com/services/managed_mail/outbound_port_25_unblock.html I can recive mail but I cannot send out. So im sure its the port.. but then again im a amature when it comes to setting mail servers up. Never really messed with it before.

I have Ampache running, as well as gallery 2. That way I can listen to my music using ampache and upload and view home photos. Any other suggestions or tips for having a home server using ubuntu and uverse Id love to hear them.

Also isnt there a way to use another port besides port 25? there has to be right? Seeing how gmail uses like 997 or something like that? I know gMail does not use port 25.. So how would you config your server to use something other than 25 if thats possible or is there more routing involved?

sammyboy405: How does DynDNS work for you? We have always got a static ip.

I am using postfix for my MTA (Mail transfer agent - Wikipedia) and the settings I gave show how to use port 587. That's the usual port and has been working for me for several days. My wife's mailing lists are not big, but they do give the server something to think about when the conversation gets going. I suggest using port 587 and seeing if that does the trick.

and...

I'm going to work with the latest ubuntu server (9.04) now that the mail is flowing. We have media servers on our home network, mostly MediaTomb on linux and TVersity and Windows Media Player on Windows. I do not open them to the internet. I'll see how things work with ubuntu 9.04.

DynDns isa free service. But if you want to use a Custom DNS they charge I think 19 bucks a year. But I have it set in my router to contact DynDns every time my ATT IP Changes. www.dyndns.com there is also no-ip.com as well they do the same things.. When i Get back I will get into more detail.
